Parametric analysis of space nuclear power plants in thermodynamic design variables

The purpose of the study is to analyze the influence of efficiency factor and medium-entropy temperatures on the specific mass of a space power plant and the specific area of the radiator cooler with regard for heat losses and mass coefficients of subsystems. Functions of the specific performance se...
